What's the best way to lose hip fat? I know you cannot target it. I've heard it's the last thing to go when losing weight. Also building arms and under peck. I'm hitting the weights and doing interval training about 5/6times a week with a daily calorie intake of 2200. Want to lower body fat percentage. If someone fab help that would be great.

    You already know you can't spot reduce fat. Your only option is to reduce overall body fat. That is done by eating in a caloric deficit--eat less, move more, or do a combo.

    If hips are your hardest to lose area, be prepared to be patient. It may very well come down to you not being happy with them until you have lost the final 5 pounds.

    Or you could eat more and move more. Maybe focus on compound lifts. Add accessories to keep it interesting.

    If your only fat is in the hips it may be better to focus on heavy lifting. Also use the barbell for hip thrusts and glute bridges (elevated, isohold, single-leg...)
